FreeIMU with Arduino FIO over Xbee

I’m doing my first steps with Xbee/Zigbee, since I’m using it in a project for the Ph.D… to get started with it I decided to do a little orientation sensing prototype. I used an Arduino FIO as brain, connected to an Xbee and one of my FreeIMU.

Here is a picture of the setup:

Here is a little video demonstrating the setup.. as you can see it’s pretty laggy.. I just using 9600 bauds here, so that’s why it lags so much. Of course, configuring the modules for faster speeds and optimizing communication more I don’t have doubts that I can get almost real-time tracking.
